PPP's newest Alaska poll finds that Hillary Clinton would have a chance at winning the state in 2016...but only if Sarah Palin was the Republican candidate for President. Clinton would lead Palin 49/40 in a hypothetical match up. Only 18% of Alaskans think Palin should run in 2016 to 77% who think she shouldn't, and even among Republican voters 72% think she should sit out the race.

Clinton trails the other Republicans we tested, although she would make the state closer than it's been in a while. Chris Christie leads her by 8 points at 46/38, Jeb Bush leads her by 7 at 49/42, Rand Paul is up 6 at 49/43, Marco Rubio has a 3 point advantage at 45/42, and Paul Ryan leads by a single point at 47/46.

I would venture to guess that Sarah Palin is more of a laughingstock in Alaska than she is anywhere else. Pretty pathetic when a former Governor cannot carry a red state that has not went blue since 1964 over someone as "cold" and "calculating" and "polarizing" and "socialist" as Hillary Clinton. But Lord, I sure do hope she is the nominee.

Clinton will lose in a landslide here at the end of the day.

She certainly won't come as close as Obama did in 2012. Just watch.

Does anyone expect Alaska to gain electoral votes in the next decade or two? Population growth would have to be substantial in a state Alaska in order for it to become more appealing for either party to compete there.

Two words:

Global warming.

What does that have to do with the state's significance in a Presidential election? Their population would have to double for either party to care about it and even at that it would still be light red.
